I have firefox clear history when it closes and it erases my exceptions for pop up windows every time it closes. How can firefox clear history without erasing exceptions to pop up windows? This is making it difficult to allow playing games in facebook such as farmville, because I have to allow it everytime, and I have to type it in rather than it automatically allowing it. Thank you, Jamie

Chosen solution

Do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Site Preferences"

Clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.
